Jessica Morse Statement on Called Primary Election Results in 4th Congressional District

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEWednesday, June 6th, 2018

ROSEVILLE, Calif. – Following last night's primary results, whereupon she will advance to the November general election, Democratic candidate Jessica Morse released the following statement:

"A year ago, I launched my campaign for Congress because I believed that the 4th Congressional District deserved a representative who would put the important issues facing our community first. For five terms, Tom McClintock has continually let this community down, whether blocking access to affordable healthcare, supporting a tax bill that hurts most Californians, or failing to protect our natural resources. This morning, I am honored to be given the chance to continue this fight to November.

"I am grateful for the hard work that my family, volunteers, and staff put into this effort, as I could not have gotten this far with their constant support. I also want to congratulate Regina Bateson and Roza Calderon on a hard-fought campaign, and humbly invite their supporters to join our team and unite for the next battle.

"Taking on Tom McClintock and his special-interest backers will not be easy. But as I have learned over the past year traveling across all ten counties in the 4th district, nothing can erase the enthusiasm and passion awakened by our campaign. I look forward to the challenge ahead."
